My First Meeting


Well I attended my first meeting and was amazed...My sister in-law called me earlier this evening and asked me if I needed her to go with me...I promptly said NO She did not attend and I am greatful...Things have worked out in the end...I will be attending again next week and so on...I felt right away that this is where I need to be....In regards to going to a meeting elsewhere...I live in a very small town and there is only the one meeting...Thanks again to everyone for your support

Blessings Brenda

Well done thats so good to hear, and great your sis in law dropped out, although you probably would have still gone with her, its always harder to talk or share when someone you know is there, thats why I find this board so helpful because I know its so private and no one I know would be on here, it offers peace of mind, sometimes its so difficult to talk in front of people we know, so its great she didnt go!

Welcome home.  Sounds like your chair was waiting for you at the exact perfect moment that you arrived.  Isn't it comforting to know others want you to keep coming back?
